Ah, the requisite ambiguous rule. Every SO event has to have one.

Balsa isn't opaque, no plastic is opaque in thin sheets. A brick is
opaque, metal is opaque. Opaque means "allows NO (zero, nada, zipo, not
a single photon of) light to pass.

The best choice I can think of is aluminum foil. Not metalized mylar.
You can watch a solar eclipse through that.
